First midweek day in February!

 TERRY

As I write Terry is still sleeping.  She had a tough night as we were up a couple of times and needed to change the bedding once.  I am hoping she sleeps for a while as it is now 7:50 AM.  She did NOT go to WT yesterday.  She felt sick and thought she may throw so I called and cancelled.  She is scheduled for WT again tomorrow.  

Terry's grandson Sam will visit today for a time.  He came down from Atlanta yesterday.  Terry is excited to see him.  She was so looking forward to having him stay a night but that will not happen.  Not sure how long he will be here.  I think Sam has not been here the last 10 years as those young people keep so busy.


I started my yearly cards yesterday.  I was able to get 11 printed so I only have 29 left!  Doing the cards is pretty easy but it is finding the pictures and editing them that takes time.  I guess I just admitted that my pictures on the computer are ALL over the play!  By the way it is out of focus by design.  No need, if anyone looks, for them to see their birthday card early!  Not sure if I will continue today as I have tennis at 10:30 and when I get back Sam should be here.

We have chilly weather today again.  I know, I am NOT complaining but for Naples it is chilly when it is 46 at 8:00 AM.  Supposed to be only 63 today and I am guessing that is maybe at least 10 degrees below normal and maybe 15+.

I watched grandson Henry live on U Tube last night playing basketball.  I was happy as they do not show the scoreboard in the setting but at the beginning of the 4th quarter they panned over so one could see.  I then wrote the score down and kept track of it.  They were behind by 4 in the 3rd quarter but came back to win by 6.  Henry, at 6' 4", is a force to be reckoned with on the boards.  Last night was not a good night for him on the score board BUT he certainly was a HUGE influence in the final score with his rebounding and defense.  At one point in the fourth quarter there was a scramble for the ball but the camera angle was poor so I could not see what happened.  All I knew was Henry was involved and the refs stopped play.  They went over to the score table and at one time it almost looked like Henry and another player may be in trouble but nothing happened.  As I have said in the past those games sometimes bring me back 50 some years ago to Sargent Central.  I cringed as their guard, who played a great game, missed several free throws down the stretch and I said to myself I hope that does not come back to bite them!  It did not.  It is kind of crazy as I still remember in my senior year I took pride in my free throw shooting.  At one time I had 17 without a miss and when I finally missed one I was so so disappointed.  

Travis is going back to some REAL winter weather.  My phone shows that starting Saturday the night time temps will be well below zero for 6 days and for 4 of those days the day time temps will not be above zero!!!

Well Terry just woke up a few minutes ago and is now reading the paper.  She did not feel all that great yesterday but she is fine today.

It is already 8:30 and I am out of words and out of stories for the day.  I will finish my FP as I look at what the stock market did yesterday.  I want to see if my couple of Tesla shares went up or down!  I need that money for my old age.  Oh, wait a second, I guess one needs more than a couple of Tesla stocks to help in old age!!!
